      Support in Spanish (general public) and English (some) English! !! I've been learning Spanish for over 10 years, so I understand the feelings of those learning a new language. In fact, I've been told several times that I don't understand your Spanish, but now I can speak it of course.
      Important: "Don't stop learning".

      Why choose Akira S.
      "This is the nicest and most understanding teacher you'll have! I take his class in spanish and he has a fantastic understanding of the spanish language so it makes it a whole lot easier for him to explain grammatical structures in japanese."

      I teach natural Japanese. Children can also take my class. I can speak English, but my English skill level isn't high.

      If you have never studied Japanese at all, I welcome you.

      Many students want to speak Japanese skilling not reading Japanese skilling. So I teach actual Japanese sentences and natural Japanese sentences.

      Why choose Kentaro S.
      "So far I have had 5 lessons, which has started with the alphabet, numbers and time. Kentaro S is very organised and teaches in a methodical way - which suits me. We also practice speaking Japanese at every lesson - going through pronunication. Kentaro S is very patient and helps me with each syllable to then say the whole word. "

      I'm here to help you. Let's enjoy learning Japanese! When you travel or work in Japan, watch Japanese dramas and movies, etc, in order to enhance your understanding it's better for you to have known even partly about Japanese culture, custom, the tendency of their way of thinking etc, all of which can be deeply related to the language.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Japanese in Glendale, CA and what are my options in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with apps, you have 4 key possibilities for learning Japanese interactively in Glendale, CA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, read about centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are less pricey.) Your second possibility can be local private language academies that charge less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can find a private Japanese tutor in Glendale, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Glendale, CA and online Japanese tutors.

    🎟 Is it affordable to learn Japanese and what does a lesson with a tutor of Japanese cost?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Japanese course cost as one-tenth of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 45-48 class hours each semester. Language schools and individual Japanese tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable Japanese tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, ratings and languages the tutor can teach in. Customer review average for Japanese lessons on Preply is 4.97 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What level of Japanese do I need to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared to show a language test profeciency score or take an entrance test to determine your level. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and tests, so research those in advance. With personal Japanese tutors you can read reviews and get a good idea for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like classes for students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. In reality, you can gain basic Japanese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand everyday expressions, express yourself, socialize in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a quick and fun way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Japanese. After mastering basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Japanese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced level practitioners.

    🤷 How long does it take to master Japanese?

    Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Japanese will necessitate at least 600 hours of study. The required duration of time can differ quite a bit depending on your already acquired level of Japanese or knowledge of other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, write using your new language skills, try to communicate with native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Japanese out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

    🤳 Can I pick my own Japanese instructor?

    In language centers, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from the ones who already work there). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of tested Japanese tutors with full profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

    Colleges usually schedule classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools as a rule give shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, allows the flexibility to schedule lessons around your commitments, on weekdays and/or weekends.
